Spring In Paris, Part 1

by

I. and I visited Paris, the capital of romance last Spring. It was our third time there but the city always seduce us whenever we go back. Seeing the Eiffel Tower live, my eyes fill with tears. It is so beautiful especially if the weather is nice and sunny.
And nearly one year later what I remember of Paris? Croissant, croissant, baguette, cheese, picnic in the park, lots of walking, market, wow this Eiffel Tower is huge, coffee latte, a nice glass of red wine, croissant, metro, macaron, chocolate, croissant, baguette, jam, butter, metro, pain au chocolat, petit coffee, lots of walking, Eiffel Tower again, market, metro, macaron and… everything again. Now that I wrote down all these I would love to go back to Paris… now!
Cheese heaven at Rue Montorgueil Market
Great breakfast place and bakery, Le Pain Quotidien on Rue Montorgueil

 

 

Beautiful pink cherry blossom in Paris
Place du Tertre, Montmartre – I would love to sit here now watching people passing by, eat a big bowl of salad with French dressing, a big portion of fries, baguette with creamy butter and drink a nice glass of white wine and a bottle of Perrier…

More to come… Stay tuned!

 

Borough Market – London, Part 2

by

What about an early Saturday morning market visit? I usually get up early on Saturdays too because I don’t want to miss my favorite organic farmers market in Budapest. It only opens until 1 am so you need to get up early if you want to buy everything you planned.
Borough Market stole my heart in August. I couldn’t stop taking photos. Which is your favorite market in the world? 

Food bloggers in action… I wasn’t the only one taking photos of this tomato paradise. Orange, yellow, light green with dark green stripes, red, black, oval, round… I’ve never seen this many type of tomatoes in one place!

We only had a quick bite for lunch. I chose Veggie Table, a small vegetarian cater business who creates simple, fresh and exciting vegetarian food. They use local vegetables and organic grains to deliver wholesome and delicious meals for vegetarians, vegans and meat-eaters alike. They craft real food from real ingredients. They have 5 booths around London markets, one at Borough. Find more information on their website.

I live in Budapest but every time I will go to London I will always go to Borough Market. I think it’s wonderful. You can get things there that you can’t find anywhere else… and I’m not the only one saying this! 🙂

Borough Market – London, Part 1

by

Before I went to London for Food Blogger Connect, I knew that Borough Market was the place I should not miss! Although I used to live in England for two years I never went to this market. I know why, I wasn’t interested in food that time. But now… Borough Market is paradise for me. I could go there everyday. Let the photos speak instead of me…

More to follow! Stay tuned!

Indian Summer In A Garden

by

I took these couple of photos in the middle of September and I felt very lucky to have such a beautiful weather. I don’t know what to say now when it’s already October and during the day it’s 25C. We’re the lucky children of mother nature, aren’t we?
In the last 5 days I was very busy taking my foodblogger friend, Sarka and her boyfriend to all the foodie places that I discovered in the last 5 years in Budapest. I think I was a good guide… but wait until we find out on Sarka’s blog! 🙂
I hope you enjoy my pictures!
